Well-Known, Established Quality
The Creality 3D CR-10 was our first attempt at creating the perfect 3D printer to fill the gap in the consumer grade market for an exceptional, durable, and simple to operate 3D printer. Over more than a year later, this model continues to surpass expectations as it has grown to be one of the most popular options in its class. The large online community of users contribute to a rich collection of media, videos, guides, and tutorials for a variety of projects which they have used their Creality 3D printer to accomplish as well as plenty of free resources meant to improve upon the already great design that really makes this model stand out as an excellent choice for the beginning hobbyist.
CR-10 Standout Features

Extra-Large Build PlatformMeasuring at nearly 12 inches by 12 inches square, the size of the CR-10 build plate goes nearly unrivaled in similar printers. The full height of the build space is 15.5 inches. This incredible build volume makes the CR-10 an excellent choice for any maker, hobbyist, educator or student who are looking to create wonderful and custom projects for work, education, or even just leisure. The heated bed has an operating range of up to 115*C which provides the necessary conditions for many high quality exotic or experimental filaments. |
Larger Ergonomic Leveling NutsOne of the most technical aspects of operating a 3d printer comes with leveling the bed. In order to make this process much easier for even the most basic of experience level, we include these extra large, oversized leveling nuts which help secure the hotbed to the printers Y-axis gantry. These large nuts allow for fine-tuning and more accurate adjustments which lead to higher print quality, more consistent and better results, and fewer headaches. |
Community DrivenOur CR-10 model 3D printer has been the most popular model in our brand’s history. Having sold over 100,000 units since its inception in 2017, few other printers can claim such great market reception. This means a community of users is growing daily and social media websites are filled with unique reviews and people talking about their Creality 3D printers. This community-driven experience has lead to many aftermarket upgrades and lots of options for people to customize and improve upon our base design with anything they wish to add. Thingiverse, Reddit, Facebook, and others, all have multiple CR-10-related model collections and groups. All of these people have contributed to the massive pool of resources regarding guides, reviews, upgrades, and troubleshooting procedures covering nearly every aspect of the CR-10. This printer really is “Tried and True”. |
Superior Construction
The CR-10 features a 100% high-quality aluminum extrusion frame, and a nearly all-metal construction. These aluminum extrusions were selected for use in the CR-10’s design because of their structural integrity, interoperability, and for the great quality control process ensuring each piece is sturdy, is flat with no warping, and meets the mechanical tolerances required, making it perfect for use in 3D printing applications.
The FDM Process

---|---|---|---|
“Slice”Popular free to download slicing software such as Cura will divide or “slice” the 3D model into thin horizontal layers. A multitude of previously designed 3D models are readily available on various internet websites for free. The software then creates a code that your printer can read and understand. Basically a set of instructions for the hardware in the printer. Save this “Gcode” file to a microSD card like a normal file. There are already many profiles designed specifically for use with the CR-10 and Cura together. |
Level and ExportUpload the file to your printer via the microSD card. Ensure that the building surface or “hotbed” is level with the nozzle or “hotend” and start the print. The CR-10 will automatically read the code in the file you selected and start extruding molten plastic filament onto the printing surface. |
WatchWatch as the printer automatically prints the layers on top of each other, one after another with incredible accuracy. The margin of error in the CR-10 is a minuscule .1 mm in both the X and Y axis, meaning that any errors in the printing process will be almost undetectable to the naked eye. |
Remove the Finished ModelOnce the printer has finished following the instructions of the Gcode uploaded earlier, it will cease operation and your finished model will be ready to remove from the build surface. Remove the model from the hotbed and use as desired. This process is so simple, even children can be learn about and understand the process and technology. Great for introducing kids to “Fun”ctional technology and engineering. |
